Organised by the Sharjah Book Authority (SBA) at Expo Centre Sharjah, the programme will spotlight strategies to grow Arabic and translated content and assess the impact of digital publishing, audiobooks and other emerging formats.

Through case studies and focused discussions, the conference will present working models from leading publishers and cultural institutions.

Sessions will explore how publishers are responding to disruption, reaching new audiences and adapting to the demands of digital formats and multilingual markets.

As a prelude to the 44th Sharjah International Book Fair (SIBF), the conference highlights the emirate's growing influence in global publishing by bringing together leading voices in publishing and policy to strengthen international dialogue and industry development.

Mansour Al Hassani, General Coordinator of Professional Conferences at SBA, said the publishing industry continues to evolve rapidly, requiring publishers to remain adaptable and engaged with emerging trends.
